And soon, one of these men will be staring down the barrel of her gun.

Industry Reviews
NUNSLINGER is more serious than its name would imply. It is an exceedingly fun read with good people, bad people, blazing guns, chases, jailbreaks, derring-do and all sorts of wildness. But it is also the sort of complex morality tale that harkens back to the best of the Western genre - when writers used the chaos of the uncivilised society and the bleakness of the landscape as a setting for discussions of what makes us human. Sister Josephine is part of that great tradition, and, indeed, NUNSLINGER already ranks amongst the best that the Western genre has to offer.
